1. Nuclear general's Bertha cannon will be replaced with Yanwang. It is fast and agile fighting vehicle, which is able to fire at both air and ground targets. Its armor is 50% higher than Overlord has. Its nuclear missiles can be launched at long ranges and retarget automatically. If target gets destroyed, launched missiles lock on another one.

2. Air Force general's Target Designator will be replaced with Colossus. It is very similar to old Target Designator and works almost the same way: it launches "Sparrowhawk" VTOL aircrafts at enemies. They can not be selected and controlled manually - they work fully automatically. Enemy can shot down Sparrowhawks and make Colossus helpless. If it happens, Colossus rebuilds lost Sparrowhawk automatically and for free. But rebuilding takes time. Enemy can use this time to take down Colossus itself. Sparrowhawk look will be shown in nearest future.



3. Chinese translation for Contra 007 has been completed. Thanks to Oops2005.

Bertha combat performance is excellent for its main role, one of my favorite super unit. But the only thing I bored is its speed. When I use formation on them with Overlords escort then they forced the nuclear engine super tank that normally run like Formular One became slug.

I hopefully Yanwang will at least run as fast as "Formular One super tank" and have knock out punch like its 007 counterpart.

deadly new toy...eh weapon!

[Dr. Lord]

I'm glad to see a new super unit, but I'll miss Bertha at all, cos it had great range, and it was ballistic. Yangwang uses missiles, and it wont be balllistic. (I think it wont be).
Creator, Yangwang will have the same damage, as Bertha had?

Yes, the same damage and the same attack range.

Yes, the same damage and the same attack range.

Does Yanwang get +25% range like Bertha with Reactive shell upgrade?

PS: The Colossus is nice.

Reactive shell upgrade?

hmmm.....

Maybe some upgrade which grant extra fuel to the missile make it go further or nothing.

Remember, this new Bertha is a fast and agile unit that had 150% health of Overlord's, non upgrade missiles that fly as far as upgraded nuke cannon shell and each missiles had more damage and more AOE than the ordinary nuke cannon shell. It's GLA rocket buggy with more health and hell of fire power. I think there is no upgrade for the missile due to its mobility.

Would the colossus be able to fire while moving?

I'm thinking about it. Reactive shells upgrade will give attack range upgrade to Inferno cannon and Nuke cannon only. But +15% attack range to 2 units is not very good. This upgrade can become useless. But it will be more useful if it effects Yanwang.

Colossus is a building. It can not move.

My fault, I ment Yanwang.

[ApOcOlYpS]

I wouldn't think that a range increase that only affects 2 units would be useless, especially when those are the only 2 artillery for China, or at least main 2. In any case allowing it to affect the Yan Wang wouldn't really increase its usefullness, but would just make the Yan Wang more powerful (by the time you build it you probably already have the reactive shells upgrade).

Maybe you are right.

[Casojin]

Most super units have at least an upgrade to make it more powerful. Yanwang supposes to have one too.

[Zeke]

it's "fast and agile", it can fire on the move, and it's missiles can track moving targets...

what more do you want?
